Regional Construction Manager

ABOUT THE ROLE

Calimingo Pools builds luxury residential pools across Southern California. We're hiring a Regional Manager to lead residential construction operations, grow revenue, and run a high-performing PM team across Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Diego.

You will own the region's P&L, build the team, and be directly accountable for margin, client experience, and execution — on every project, across the entire region.

EIGHT DOMAINS. ONE OPERATING STANDARD.

You own all eight. These are operating requirements — not aspirations. Talent Development — Hire, train & build a PM bench that runs without you Operations Oversight — Enforce KPIs, daily reports & accountability — no exceptions Vendor & Subcontractors — Vet, contract & train subs before they touch a project Pre-Production Review — Approve plans, contracts & bids before anything launches Permitting Acceleration — Cut time-to-start through permit mastery & inspection sequencing Financial Oversight — Own the P&L — enforce contracts, protect margin, stop scope creep Client Relationships — Handle escalations personally & enforce the five-star standard Process Improvement — Identify friction, propose fixes, own adoption across the team
